Summary

As the Punjohpur sails down the River Mersey and Liverpool
disappears from view, twenty-two year old Priscilla
Thornton's noble ideas of serving her country by
accompanying 241 evacuees from Britain to safety in Canada
are beginning to wane - and well they might. The year is
1940 and Britain is at war. When fate assigns Cilla's
childhood sweetheart Ted Evans, a signaler in the Royal
Navy, to the Punjohpur, he is furious to find Cilla has
ignored his advice and is aboard. Four nights later, at the
height of an Atlantic storm, the Punjohpur is torpedoed. In
the chaos Cilla and Ted are separated. Over the course of
the next three months, Cilla faces raw terror, cold,
hunger, and captivity. Far from being a tale of failure and
despair, this is the story of a young woman's emotional
growth through her own courage and determination to survive
and to be reunited with Ted.
